Grow Together, Succeed Together
District News
The Butts County School System (BCSS), is continuing to monitor the possible winter weather that may or may not affect our area. BCSS is working with the local EMA and we are being briefed daily by the National Weather Service. There is a lot of uncertainty to this storm. The decision of whether or not to have school on Monday, January 26, 2026 will be decided on either Saturday (24th) or Sunday (25th). You will be notified through the Infinite Campus Portal so I ask that you take some time to check your information to ensure we have the correct information in IC. If your contact information is incorrect, please notify your student’s school so the correct information can be updated.
Thanks and stay warm.
